Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Identify operating requirements
   • Transport timetables and running times for each line or service are identified and kept updated within roster operations
   • Transport running times are identified for each line or service to ensure all crewing requirements are planned
   • Set working or work tasks to be performed are identified for each transport service
   • Contingency plans covering operational problems are identified and impact on crewing needs analysed
2. Identify tasks, responsibilities and work requirements
   • Support activities required to facilitate transport arrival and activities are identified to ensure all crewing requirements are planned
   • Support activity set workings or required work tasks are identified
3. Establish work rosters
   • Rosters are developed to cover all work requirements with regard to relevant industrial/workplace conditions, absenteeism levels and planned leave
   • Rosters are arranged to allow sufficient flexibility to allow contingency plans to be implemented
   • Rosters are circulated in accordance with workplace policies and procedures for review by affected personnel
   • Relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements are identified and addressed in rosters developed
   • Relevant safeworking systems and requirements are identified and addressed in rosters developed
4. Finalise work rosters
   • Feedback from personnel associated with rosters is addressed and acceptable modifications are agreed
   • Final rosters are documented and distributed to ensure work requirements are accurately communicated

Range Statement

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.
